How do you greet a king?

Not sure how old this question is, but I'll give it my try.

You wait till he/she (there are some queens too!) extends a hand, you bow slightly, make a slight 'reverence' (as if you one of your knees gives in for a sec). Nothing too overdone, though. You wait till you're addressed before you speak and call the royal person: Royal Highness or its equivalent.

Etiquette further says you may never show the royal your back, so if it applies to the conditions, you walk backwards (at least a few steps) away from him/her.

However, specifically European royalty is not as strict in what they expect from you as in the old days. They're more and more like you and me....

How many of Henry VIII's wives were divorced?

Technically Henry's marriages were annulled, not divorced. In total, Henry annulled four of his marriages, including those to Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard, the two wives he beheaded.

Henry's first marriage, to Catherine of Aragon, was annulled as she was technically married to his brother Arthur before his death. Catherine always claimed the marriage wasn't consummated.

Henry's second marriage, to Anne Boleyn, was also annulled, or dissolved, just a few days before her execution on charges of adultery, treason and incest.

Henry's fourth marriage to Anne of Cleves, a German noblewoman, was annulled just a few months after it happened as it was never consummated. Anne of Cleves accepted the title of the Kind's Beloved Sister with the annulment.

The fourth marriage that Henry had annulled was his fifth marriage, that to Catherine Howard. This marriage was annulled due to Howard's own admonitions of behaviour not fitting to that of a Queen of England, and she was executed a few months later.

King Henry the 8ths children?

Here is some information about the children of Henry VIII (1491 - 1547):

Mary I was in her 31st year, Elizabeth I in her 14th year and Edward VI in his 10th year, when their father, Henry VIII died.

Mary I (1516 - 1558) by Catherine of Aragon - first wife (1485 - 1536)

Elizabeth I (1533 - 1603) by Anne Boleyn - second wife (c1501-07 - 1536)

Edward VI (1537 - 1553) by Jane Seymour - third wife (c1504-09 - 1537)

Catherine of Aragon did give birth to six children, but apart from Mary, they were stillborn or died within a few weeks. Anne Boleyn had at least two miscarriages.

Anne of Cleves (1515 - 1557)

Catherine Howard (c1520 - 1542)

Katherine Parr (c1512 - 1548)

did not bear Henry any children.

Henry also had an acknowledged illegitimate son:

Henry Fitzroy (1519 - 1536) Duke of Richmond (by Henry's mistress Elizabeth Blount)

There may have been other illegitimate children, possibly by Mary Boleyn, (and in particular her son, Henry Carey) another of Henry's mistresses and sister of Anne Boleyn; but they have not been confirmed or acknowledged, probably because of the timing of the relationship between Henry and Mary Boleyn.

Why was Anne of cleeves divorced?

After the tragic death of his third wife, Jane Seymour, shortly after giving birth to their son, Edward, eventually Henry VIII was persuaded to marry again. But this fourth wife, Anne of Cleves was chosen via a portrait Henry had commissioned, and when he saw her in the flesh, he was extremely unhappy with her appearance (he called her "the Flanders Mare"). The marriage did go ahead, however, on 6 January 1540, but Henry refused to consummate the marriage, so this was also annulled. However, at least Anne of Cleves was generously "paid off" and did not lose her head.
